Thank You Karen ��I'm tickled ! To be the winner of Quilters Dream Batting !It'll be perfect for that moda kit I bought a month ago ! It's all triangles, perfect for sampling/practicing fmq. ! A Good Batting sandwich will show it off nicely!

It is remiss of me not to have acknowledged my win on your blog Karen... I am now back in computer land so, again, a huge thank you for the opportunity to learn from you - your instructions and videos are just the best. For me to win the Aurifil thread is a real treat as it is quite difficult to get the colours required here in Australia. Now I will have lots of Aurifil to put into my next FMQ'd quilt. I will also be looking out for your next online project. Hugs from Australia. Glenice Jones

Thanks for all the tips on fm quilting. You mention using wool batting, which I'd like to try. Have you had any trouble with the wool migrating through the quilt top? Any tips on what to look for when buying wool batting?Thank you.

Hi Judy- thanks for writing. I have been using Quilters Dream wool for about 2 years now and I've not seen any issue with it migrating through to the quilt top. I've only ever used it on Quilt Shop quality fabrics. I do use the smallest needle possible for the thread size I am quilting with. Are you seeing this trouble on your sit down machine ? Also, when purchasing a wool batting do look at the shrinkage rate -- and if you can inspect it before buying be sure that there are no areas that are uneven in the batting -- I experienced this issue with another popular brand and stopped using it. It had think and thick sections of the batting. I hope this helps. Feel free to email me anytime with questions -- I'll help if I can. karen at redbirdquiltco dot com
